What is Emisar?

Emisar is a framework that lets AI agents investigate and operate infrastructure through declared actions, with every action bounded by policy and host-side checks. When approvals are required, humans stay in the loop, and every action leaves an audit trail, making agents safer to run against real systems.

Pros

  • Policy-bounded actions keep agents within safe limits
  • Human approvals where required, with a full audit trail
  • Built in Elixir for reliability at runtime

Cons

  • Serious infrastructure tooling, not a casual install
  • Requires Elixir ecosystem familiarity
  • Early-stage with a smaller community

Who should use Emisar

Platform and DevOps teams who want agents operating infrastructure under strict guardrails.

Who may not need it

Teams without infrastructure automation needs.
